Love your choice of a song--though the opening 'It was so dull in town...' starts with a man singing, not a woman.

Harry's understanding of his plight is quite perceptive for one so young--but then he's had a lot of time to think in that prison under the stairs, hasn't he?

The first book has always been an emotional favorite of mine, and your story brought the feelings I had when i first read it.

Thanks, Calamur.

Aww, thanks, JD.  That was sweet of you to do! Thanks, and I look forward to reading more.  *hugs*

You could have done better on this. The age didn't come through clearly at all, and some of it pulled on the kind of cliches one expects to see in underdeveloped Dursley abuse fanfiction. You also... with a songfic, you have to make sure that the song really adds to the story and that the story is complimented by the song. Uraj, you can write better than this.
